Which type of telescope would perform better on a mountaintop than at a lower elevation?

1 answer:

5 0

when an optical telescope located on the ground is used to view the sky the image has to surpass through the earth's atmosphere which is polluted. so the resolution wont be clear. When viewed on a mountain top both optical and infrared telescopes would perform better as the air above the atmosphere is less depth and cleaner.

Find the mass of oxygen in grams produced by the decomposition of 100.0 g of CO2

SSSSS [86.1K]

The balanced chemical equation is :

$2CO_2->2CO+O_2\\\\$

Moles of $CO_2$ ,

$n = \dfrac{100\ g}{44.01\ g/mol}\\\\n=2.27\ mol$

Now, by given chemical equation , we can see 2 mole of $CO_2$ react with 1 mole of $O_2$ .

So , 2.27 mole react with :

$N=\dfrac{2.27}{2}\ mol\\\\N=1.135\ mol$

Mass of oxygen is :

$M = N \times 16\\\\M=1.135\times 16\ g\\\\M =18.16\ g$

Therefore, mass of oxygen in grams produced is 18.16 g.

Hence, this is the required solution.
